Zeno Debast also provides clear analysis on a personal level and sees a surprisingly strong leader at the Red Devils – Football News

“I have to thank the national coach for this opportunity at Jan Vertonghen’s side, in this beautiful stadium,” Zeno Debast returns on a special evening for him and for the national team. “I think we were able to deliver great football. We can go home with a positive mindset.”

Just a shame about that late 2-2. “There is of course some disappointment, we all wanted to win this match. We may have had the feeling that victory was coming, but unfortunately we conceded a goal in the last minute.”

Positive image for Debast about the international period

However, that will not form his entire impression of this international match. “I will not only remember the international matches of this week with the national team, but also the experiences in training, which were all positive.” Although the outside world will of course mainly look at his performance in the match against England.

How does the Anderlecht defender evaluate this? “There are of course still things I can do better, but I am making progress and I have to look back on this match positively. And I will review my performance with the video analysts.”

It was also nice to play football with an excellent goalkeeping Matz Sels behind him. “He has saved us several times. He is very strong in terms of leadership,” Debast also puts him among the leading figures, although many will rather think of Vertonghen or Lukaku for such a role. “He is good at adjusting other players.”
